Stoop Theology S1 Episode 6: When Is It OK to Cut Someone Off?  

Is it Christian to keep forgiving someone who keeps hurting you? In this episode, we unpack one of the most asked questions we get — and reframe the whole conversation around something more helpful: boundaries. What does the Bible actually say about forgiveness, reconciliation, and protecting yourself from harm? Let's talk about it.  

Stoop Theology is a series rooted in honest, thoughtful conversations about real-life questions. From faith and doubt to culture, justice, relationships, and everyday struggles, we explore what it looks like to wrestle with life and belief—like neighbors talking it out on a stoop. Whether you’re deeply rooted in faith, skeptical, or somewhere in between, Stoop Theology is a space for meaningful dialogue about questions that matter.

Stoop Theology S1 Episode 5: Speed Is Killing Your Spiritual Life  

How do you actually find the rhythm to start slowing down in a world that never stops? Is the practice of rest a command you have to follow, or a gift you get to receive? In this episode of Stoop Theology, we explore how slowing down can help you overcome "inattentional blindness," why your value isn’t tied to your production, and talk practically about how to start your own Sabbath practice. If you’re feeling under the spell of the hustle and want to hear God’s voice again, this conversation is for you.
